Hulbert says this is the third fire at this location in three days as he points to two burnt patches of grass from previous fires. Hulbert says “every single one of them” is suspicious. Firefighters are intentionally burning grass in the surrounding area in what Hulbert is calling a “vegetation management burn.”

“We’ll probably spend about an hour out here,” Hulbert says.

According to Hulbert, there are homeless encampments in the area, and he says people need to be more careful where they throw their cigarette butts because of the weather and time of year.
